    What is your intended purpose?

    I hate 2 ply tires and only use 4 plies, but that's just my personal preference.

    I prefer the 2 ply on the 350x just for the flex and softness. Mostly woods trail riding. Occasional desert. Have paddles for pure sand. I went with Kenda scorpions but they run really small and it's been hell on my skid plate. And they run really narrow. Just don't like em. Wondering if anyone ever ran these.

    I so disliked my Scorpions. Gave them away to a friend at TF last year. I hope we're still friends after that

    While I don't know anything about these particular tires, but I can say that Maxxis makes the best bang for the buck rock and desert dirt bike tires there are if you don't want to be changing them out every 10 hours or so.

    El, I'm with you 100% on that. Not happy at all. As far as performance there mediocre at best. They don't slide well that's for sure. Grip is ok but the sizing is crap. I'm gonna go buy the maxxis ' today.
    Glamy, I counter your point with Miller canyon

    Rode 35 miles this am (woulda went farther had an issue) mostly in tree cover.

    Well I bought em. Size wise there pretty true. A little short just over 21" with no air. I will say there real aggressive. Deep tread for sure. Not as heavy as you'd think. Lighter than 6ply itps in the same size. I'll post mounted pics later

    In comparison, they look so huge. But they measure 21.5" tall inflated to 4psi. And 11" wide on the dot. My 20x11-8 ITP holeshots are 20" tall and. 11" wide so very comparable. Weight wise there a bit haveier than the kendas but lighter than my 4 ply ITP in a smaller size. Hopefully they perform well. I'm sure they won't slide very good. But most of my riding is trails so not a huge issue.

    Those look like the tires I have. They don't slide at all but they grip well. I'm told by people behind me that they tend to throw quite a bit of debris

    Good to hear I won't be the only one with these monsters. I bought em yesterday mounted then and realized someone had razor bladed the sidewall of one when they took the plastic off. Took it back to the store of course I got the last two. They will have it this week. Hopefully on the trail Saturday.

    I'll have to check on the brand. They're tough that's for sure. I've ran over many a stump and roots with them. Not good for sliding though
